✦ Synopsis

The use of particulate silicone in plastic surgery involves the introduction of solid silicone into the body. The silicone is in small pieces in order for it to adapt to the shape of the defect. This way large quantities can be introduced through small incisions. It is also possible to distribute the silicone particles from outside the skin to make the corrections more regular. This method has been very useful for correcting post-traumatic depressions in the face and all areas where the depression has a rigid back support. We consider it the treatment of choice for correcting the funnel chest deformity.
